Is it permissible to work in a mint?

 

We know that working in a bank is haraam, but what is the ruling on working in the mint which prints the money for the banks – is that haraam too?.

Praise be to Allaah.

There is nothing wrong with working in the mint, and this
work has nothing to do with the transactions of the riba-based banks. The
people’s need for this currency is obvious to everyone, as it has become
essential to their lives. Production of this currency is connected to the
strength or weakness of the local economy, and the relationship between the
mint and the central bank is not one of transactions, rather it issues
orders to print a certain amount according to the fluctuations in the
foreign currency reserve and the economy. 

And Allaah knows best.

Following note from Learning Quran online Blog 

 

Learn holy Quran online which it self states in it that only those who are learn quran and pure should touch the holy text: This is indeed a Quran in Arabic in a book well-guarded, which none shall touch but those who are clean (56:77-79).  One should make formal ablutions before handling or Quran reading and this the quran tutor should tell in his quran teaching when quran for kids lessons are going on. After intercourse or menstrual bleeding one should not touch the holy Quran or do quran recitation and also not do quran memorization until after bathing non-Muslim should not handle the sacred text, but may listen to Quran online or read quran translation or exegesis. With all these things in mind when one is not reading or reciting holy Quran it should be closed and stored in nice and clean place, it should never be placed on floor or in a bathroom and Muslim should focus on reading quran the tajweed quran and its rules with a proper institute.
